Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] FW: Outsourcing WiFi to Apogee
We put AP's in rooms and they become just like any other University owned property, the resident is responsible for any damage to the AP. That said we have had them in rooms for 3 years and have never had a problem with damage. The only issue we had was the status lights, students said the blinking was keeping them awake but that they could live with the blue or green steady on power light so we turned off the blinking lights and left the warm glow of the power light on.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Experience with Meru
We have Meru in our dorms. We had no issues for the first year and a half where we only had a single type of AP. We added wireless to more dorms using another model of AP and now the controller has bounced twice without explanation from Meru TAC. I agree that we are seeing a better effort put forth in keeping us up to date and support was quick to respond (even if we had to request the 'unknown' issue be pushed up the ladder). From what I've heard from other Meru customers mixing AP models can result in issues.

We have a couple of event rooms that have a high density deployment and have not heard of any issues there. I wish I had some metrics (head bowed in shame and frustration) for you but their reporting tool is not good. I opted not to renew and hold back on trying to do a POC for their latest EzRF Network Manager (reporting tool). They are going back to their secret sauce, virtual cell (for clean hand off between APs), which was neglected because they had to turn their focus on stabilizing their System Director OS and AP hardware. The new APs have a new chip set with new features but we don't have those on our campus. It seems that this will not be a problem for you but if you have two different AP models with the two different chip sets, they will ask you to completely isolate them and create new ESS profiles for them.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Disabling 802.11b speeds
We too were thinking of disabling the B rates. But I read (post below) that some people run into Apple devices dropping connection when they did this so I am still looking at this. Post: If you're using Cisco one thing to check is that the MCS0 data rate is enabled. I had a lot of problems with Macs and iThings dropping after I disabled the 802.11b rates and MCS0. Per TAC's suggestion I re-enabled the MCS0 rate and have not been experiencing the problems since. Apparently it has to do with the OS dropping the data rate to MCS0 to save power, but not checking if that rate is supported before doing it.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Open-Free Access wireless
Since we couldn't find them we would block their MAC address from joining the network, give the Help desk the information. When the user called about not being able to connect the Help desk would check the MAC and notify the user why they couldn't connect.
